    This rezoning application is currently under review, which can take generally 12-15 months. Upon completion of review it will be presented to Council for a decision at a public hearing. If Council approves the project, the applicant will be required to meet certain enactment conditions. During this time they may submit a development application for review. If approved the project would continue to construction, the timeline for which would have a number of variables and is difficult to estimate this early in the process.

    The shadows created by the proposed building can be seen at certain times of day and year by clicking on Shadow Studies under Application documents.

  • Share It seems like you have posted incorrect shadow studies for this project. Can you please check this out to see if this is the case? The renderings and shadow studies also appear to be missing the large tower going up on the Denny's site. Would it be possible to show this new tower at Birch and Broadway in your posted materials and video?

    Every applicant provides shadow studies which are vetted through the rezoning process. The applicant is reviewing the shadow studies they submitted, and this answer will be updated following their review. Staff review of the rezoning application is underway and an analysis of the application will be reflected in a future Council report.

    The applicant's documents reflect a snapshot in time showing context for buildings constructed prior to submission of the application. The model flythrough video created for this Q&A period shows a semi-transparent form of the approved but not yet developed rezoning at the southeast corner of Birch St and W Broadway. Staff review of the application will consider current context.

    Update:

    The applicant has submitted revised shadow studies, which do take daylight savings into account.
